Examples

1、The circumference ratio is an infinite non-repeating decimal. It approximately equals 3.14.

圆周率是一个无限不循环小数，近似等于3.14.

2、The area of the circular ring is the difference of the areas of the inner circle and the outer circle.

圆环的面积等于内外两个圆面积之差。

3、When the radius is fixed，the area of the sector increases when its central angle increases.

半径一定时，扇形的面积随圆心角的增大而增大。

4、In a sector diagram, the circle means the whole and the sectors mean different parts in the whole. The size of the sector shows its percentage in the whole.

在扇形统计图中，圆代表总体，扇形代表总体中的不同部分，扇形的大小反应了部分占总体的百分比。

5、The size of plane covered by a circle is the area of the circle.

圆所占平面的大小叫做圆的面积。
